Info Overlay
by iquldev
Info Overlay puts a text panel on the screen that shows the FPS counter and other data such as system time, coordinates and RAM usage.
What it does
The panel is built from placeholders, so the text shown can be edited freely. A player can pick which values appear and change the overlay's color, position and transparency. The settings are handled through YetAnotherConfigLib, and Fabric API is needed as well.
Typical uses listed by the author include showing coordinates while mining for resources, watching RAM use and FPS to follow a modpack's performance, and displaying in-game time, weather or real-world time. The mod is open source under the MIT License and is published for Fabric and Quilt. Files cover 1.20 – 26.3, and the latest Fabric file is 2.1 for 26.3.

FPS and system readouts
FPS, system time, coordinates and memory use can all be shown on screen at the same time.
